Larry reported to the list the story abot the poor fellow who was hit and
injured by that dump truck. He died a day later. There's a story
from yesterday in the Hagerstown paper: Family of bicyclist killed by dump
truck vow to promote rider safety

He had wanted to keep riding until he was past 100. This brought to mind
a story from earlier in the month of a 105 year old French cyclist:
